Coffee and tea after the colloquium at 15:30
Exploring new frontiers of quantum optical science Mikhail Lukin Harvard University, Cambridge, USA
In this talk we will discuss recent developments involving a new scientific interface between quantum optics, many body physics, nanoscience and quantum information science. Specific examples include quantum manipulation of individual spins and photons using atom-like impurities in diamond and control of light-matter interactions using sub-wavelength localization of optical fields. Novel applications of these techniques ranging from novel approaches to quantum computation at room temperature to implementation of quantum optical networks and nanoscale magnetic sensing will be discussed.
